William Kent
Krueger
Author Website Red Knife Multi-award winning author and local hero William Kent Krueger has done it again. In Red Knife, he delivers his best book yet. Not for the faint, this is, at its heart, a novel about violence, and the inner turmoil that Cork O'Connor has long faced throughout this series concerning his cultural heritage; he's been stuck between two cultures, and an alien to both. The time has come to make a decision, and it's a shocker. Drugs have found their way onto the reservation. A new gang - the Red Boyz - seems to be involved. Cork investigates, and with the help of the elders, hatches a plan to put a stop to it. Meanwhile, a cloud of malevolence and impending doom has settled upon Aurora, and Cork has no idea what it means, or even if it's real. But there's a bad moon rising… From its opening and straight on through to the end, this is one powerful book. (Gary) "Outstanding...Simply and elegantly told, this
sad story of loyalty and honor, corruption and hatred, hauntingly
carves utterly convincing characters, both red and white, into
the consciousness." Publishers Weekly, starred review. . |
